Great day out
Great day out and opportunities to swim, snorkel, sunbathe and see different beaches and the island from a different perspective.

Phenomenal. Not sure what I loved most, the crew, the food, the hospitality, or the beautiful beaches. Truly wonderful from start to finish

Book this boat! By far the best day of our trip, been on lots of catamarans around the world, this one takes the cake! Luxury boat, friendly staff, amazing food and drinks. Book directly with Celine Charters SXM and you will not be disappointed. Can't wait to visit again!

If I could give this charter a 10/10, I absolutely would! We booked the shared group charter to Anguilla with Celine Charters, and it exceeded all expectations. The crew was incredible—attentive, professional, and fun—making the entire experience seamless and enjoyable. The boat was stunning and spacious, with only 18 guests onboard, ensuring plenty of room to relax and take in the breathtaking views. The food was outstanding—easily one of the best meals of our entire trip—paired with delicious drinks. And the beaches? Simply unreal. Some of the most beautiful I’ve ever seen. Without a doubt, we’ll be booking this charter again the next time we’re in Saint Martin!

There simply is not a better time and value to be had. Boat is always full of repeaters .
Best day I have ever spent on a boat anywhere on any island . Have already sailed with them a couple times . Half the people you meet have been doing this trip for 5-10-15 years .

Amazing day on the water!
This tour provides almost everything you would want! Amazing food, great company, the captain and crew were excellent and it’s an awesome boat. What would have made it even better? To actually sail the sailboat…. We motored all day. I get it, it’s more dependable and efficient time wise… and you do this everyday so it’s more work to actually sail. But it is a sailboat! So if you’re looking for a true sailing excursion, this probably isn’t the one. But it was a ton of fun regardless and if true sailing isn’t that important to you there probably isn’t a better group! 👍

SXM Celine Charters not to miss
What an amazing day. It started with Neil meeting us at the dock of Nowhere Special, where he transported passengers, including my wife and I to the Enigma C3. What an impressive boat. He then went with my wife and took a tender dinghy to pick up our son, his wife and kids in Phillipsburg at the cruise ship docks. As I proceeded on the Enigma C3 to Happy Bay. Shortly, after arriving to the bay, my family and Neil arrived on the tender. My grandchildren were sitting up front and had the boat ride of their lives. They had cut through the lagoon and passed all these impressive yachts on the way. We swam and snorkel in the area. Then we had an amazing meal prepared by chef Andrew. He accommodated everybody’s diet with an amazing spread, and there was plenty of food. Anna, the hostess was always making sure we were well taken care of. Captain Dean, with his amazing knowledge of the island, boats and surroundings kept us well informed of what’s what. Our last stop was at La Semana where we swam and snorkel more. Neil then took my son, wife and children back to the cruise docks. They arrived with ample time to walk back to the ship. Using the tender to transport them alleviated the stress of being caught up in traffic on the roads to get back to the cruise ships. My family had the best day of their vacation. The service that I received made me feel that this was my own private charter. All the passengers received the same attention that we received. Thank you, Neil and the crew, for such an amazing memorable day. This is a trip not to miss. Worth every penny.

Best Boat Trip in Sint Maarten!

I’ve experienced boat trips with several companies on the island, and Celine Charters is, without a doubt, the most exceptional!

From the moment we stepped aboard, we were warmly welcomed with a light breakfast, coffee, and cocktails. The pastries were fresh out of the oven, and the fruit was perfectly ripe. Lunch was a true highlight, featuring a wide variety of dishes to suit every taste: seafood paella, local fish, BBQ ribs, vegetables, salad, mac and cheese, and more—all masterfully prepared by the talented chef on board. Drinks flowed generously throughout the day, with non-alcoholic options available beyond just water and juice, ensuring everyone’s preferences were met.

The itinerary was a dream: a serene cruise around the island with multiple stops for swimming, snorkeling, exploring pristine beaches on both the Dutch and French sides, or simply relaxing on deck. You could sunbathe and sip on delicious cocktails while soaking up the breathtaking scenery.

The vessel itself was spacious and never felt crowded. Unlike the noisy, overcrowded “party boats” offered by other companies, the ambiance aboard the Enigma was laid-back and elegant. The music was kept at a pleasant volume, and the guests enjoyed a balance of fun and tranquility. The environment felt safe, social, and sophisticated.

The crew deserves a special mention for their outstanding hospitality. They were attentive, professional, and friendly without being intrusive—true experts in ensuring a memorable experience.

To me, this felt akin to a private yacht excursion—smooth, luxurious, and utterly relaxing. The flawless service, exquisite food and drinks, and meticulous attention to detail clearly reflect the passion and dedication of the owner and crew.

Don’t hesitate—book your trip now! You won’t regret it!

Another great day with Captain Neil and Celine Charters
Highly recommend taking a day and spending it with Neil and has fantastic crew. We had a great time with our teenage daughters and there were two families with younger children that had a great time. Just as all the other reviews share, food was outstanding, the beach stops are epic and it is a great tour of the western shore of the island from Simpson Bay to Happy Bay.So much fun and we will back again next year. Our first cruise with Captain Neil was over 20 years ago. It is so much fun to be able to continue to revisit this vacation highlight!

Our group of 11 (7 adults and 4 children ranging in age from 8-16) chartered Enigma for a day trip around the island. The crew were friendly, attentive, informative and accommodating. We all agreed that our day aboard Enigma was a highlight of our vacation. Our lunch aboard the boat was one of the best meals we had during our stay. The food was fresh and delicious with plenty of variety. Anna, Dean and Andrew were phenomenal. Highly recommend!

Best Experience on St Martin
Our family spent a wonderful day sailing the waters off of St Martin with Captain Dean and Anna and Chef Andrew. The boat is spacious and perfect for lounging, snorkeling and dining. We were served an incredibly tasty lunch that surpassed any of our dinners out in St Martin. We would highly recommend this experience.

Date of experience: 01 January, 2025

A Wonderful Day
This tour was fantastic! Neil, the owner has literally saved our day to make separate trips to pick us up since this tour wouldn’t have worked with our cruise ship schedule(it was my fault to not realize this when I booked the tour). But everything worked out because of Neil and his fantastic crew… We had an amazing day on the water, and we absolutely enjoyed the day! We had enough time to swim and enjoy the best beaches in St Marten. The crew member Anna, Andrew and Dean are awesome. The food was top notch and definitely beyond everyone’s expectation. It was a phenomenal day and everyone on the boat enjoyed every bit of it. We really appreciate Neil and all his crew for giving us such a wonderful time and a very memorable experience!!! I would give a six star if I could.
